DocBuilder Pro (option)
Viewing and editing jobs
DocBuilder consists of two thumbnail windows and several page-manipulation
commands. Page-level operations include generating thumbnail images, adding pages,
deleting pages, duplicating pages, reordering pages, and adding blank pages.
Previewing jobs
You can use the Thumbnail A window to preview pages of the currently RIPping job.
You can also use Thumbnail A, as well as Thumbnail B, to preview any held PostScript
or PDF job in the Spool area; or any held PostScript, PDF, or raster data job in the RIP
area.
The thumbnail windows also allow you to perform electronic collation or document
merging. This feature is described on page 3-12.

When DocBuilder Pro is installed, in order to open the thumbnail windows for
jobs in the Spool area, the jobs must first be converted to PDF files. In addition, the
Adobe Acrobat 4.0 application (included with the DocBuilder Pro option for
Command WorkStation software) is required to view the job. When you select a job in
the Spool area and choose Thumbnail A or Thumbnail B, the Acrobat Distiller
application launches and the conversion process occurs automatically. Wait a few
moments as the Command WorkStation prepares and then opens the job for viewing.
If DocBuilder Pro is not installed, PostScript files can be opened in the Thumbnail
windows, but are not converted to PDF.
